She shoved the entire tote bag in her hand into Gu Nian's hands: "Hey, beautiful, dignified and elegant mother, do you miss your daughter? Your daughter misses you too."
Ye Shujun: "Luo! Shi! Miao! Did you steal my card to buy something?"
Luo Shimiao held her phone away and stuck out her tongue: "That's not stealing, it's borrowing. I'll pay you back when I make money."
Ye Shujun: "I'd rather believe a pig than believe you!"
"Mom, here's what happened. Gu Nian took me out for hot pot tonight. We were filming a show. He's been cooking for me lately. After we finished eating, we happened to pass by LG, so we went in to buy him a gift to thank him."
Ye Shujun: "Oh, I see. Then Mom will deposit some more money. Is 10 million enough? You can take Xiaonian to pick some more."
Luo Shimiao: "............" Who exactly is her child?!
Gu Nian turned her face away so she wouldn't see the smile on her face.
Back in the car, Gu Nian's gaze deepened as he asked, "Did you really buy me a gift? Or was it just to appease Auntie?"
"Really, why would I lie to you?" Luo Shimiao took out the bracelet she bought for Gu Nian and put it on him herself.
"I knew it would suit you the moment I saw it. I knew I had good taste! Look at it!" She touched the bracelet, then touched the man's slender fingers. Both were beautiful!
........
The next day, the two got up early to go to the market to buy groceries.
Before filming started, the photographers were still sleeping, so Luo Shimiao went to Director He and asked for a mini action camera that could be used for live streaming, which she clipped to her collar.
Log in to her official live streaming account, which she had obtained from Director He, and turn on the live streaming function. As soon as the live stream went live, the number of viewers in the upper right corner kept increasing, reaching seven figures in just a few minutes.
Luo Shimiao realized they had forgotten to buy ginger. Since they had bought fish, ginger was essential. He turned to Gu Nian and said, "Gu Nian, go buy some ginger. There's a breakfast shop up ahead. I'll go get breakfast to go."
"Mm." Gu Nian nodded.
Luo Shimiao locked his car and headed towards the breakfast shop.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts so much. Little sister, could you take me home? My home is nearby." A pregnant woman stopped Luo Shimiao.
Luo Shimiao hesitated for a moment. She remembered that when she closed the car door, she glanced around but didn't see any pregnant women. She glanced at the woman's stomach and said, "I'll take you to the hospital."
The pregnant woman said, "No need to go to the hospital. This has been happening frequently these past few days. I'll just rest at home and be fine."
"Little sister, you seem like a kind person. Could you give me a ride? My home is nearby, so it won't take up too much of your time."
"Okay." He walked behind the pregnant woman, supporting her while gently tracing his fingertips across her belly.
Luo Shimiao took out her phone and sent a message to Gu Nian.
The pregnant woman immediately leaned forward and asked, "Send a text message to your boyfriend?"
Luo Shimiao blinked her bright, watery eyes and said innocently, "Yeah, I told him to buy the things and wait for me in the car. Sister, you're so amazing! How did you know I was texting my boyfriend?"
The pregnant woman's eyes flashed and she said, "Hehe, you're so pretty, you must have a boyfriend. I was just talking nonsense, but I didn't expect it to be right."
The pregnant woman then asked, "What's the little girl's name? How old is she?"
"My name is Gu Sanshui, and I'm 20 years old. What about you, sister? I still don't know your name?"
Wang Xiao'ou's lips twitched. Sanshui? Her parents really know how to name their children.
"Call me Wang Xiao'ou, everyone calls me Sister Xiao'ou, you can call me that too."
"Yes, Sister Xiao'ou."
Looking at the girl's innocent and naive appearance, Wang Xiao'ou's gaze softened even more.
Just as Gu Nian was about to make the payment, he saw a message from Luo Shimiao on WeChat. His dark eyes narrowed, he opened the location, glanced at it, and then dialed a number.
After walking for about seven or eight minutes, the road became increasingly remote and narrower. While speaking, Luo Shimiao used her other hand to operate her phone behind her back.
"Xiao'ou, your house is in a rather remote area."
Wang Xiao'ou's face showed sadness as she said, "Sigh, my husband injured his leg at work a couple of years ago, and now he can only make a living by collecting recyclables. Now I'm heavily pregnant, and no one wants to hire me, so..."
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect your family situation to be like this." He looked at Wang Xiao'ou with a pained expression.
I don't know how many turns it took.
"We've arrived." Wang Xiao'ou led Luo Shimiao to a dilapidated bungalow.
There are many houses like this around, a desolate place, without a trace of human life.
Wang Xiao'ou held Luo Shimiao's hand and said gratefully, "Sanshui, thank you so much for bringing me back. I don't have anything nice to give you in return, but if you don't mind, please have a meal at my house before you go back."
"How could I mind? I'll send a message to my boyfriend and tell him to go home first."
Wang Xiaou smiled broadly: "Okay, okay, I'm glad you don't mind."
"oops!"
Wang Xiao'ou's face tightened: "What's wrong?"
"My phone ran out of battery and shut down automatically. I forgot to charge it last night." Luo Shimiao showed Wang Xiaou the black screen of her phone.
"It's okay, I have a charging cable at home. Come inside and I'll charge your phone." Wang Xiao'ou's smile grew even brighter.
"Um"
Wang Xiaogou stood behind Luo Shimiao, looking as if she was afraid he would run away.
Luo Shimiao quickly took the mini action camera off his collar, stuffed it into his chest, looked at the black iron door, and pushed it open without hesitation and went inside.
As soon as she entered, she heard the sound of the door being locked behind her. The room was dimly lit. "Xiao'ou, why are you locking the door during the day?"
“Recently, rabid dogs have been coming over looking for food. I’m afraid they’ll bite you, so I’ve closed the door. Don’t be afraid.”
